Can't Copy Game

I have been unable to copy a game of mine despite attempts on 3 separate occasions to do so over the past week. The process has been left for over 4 hours each time without completing. Can you help? I assume that the usual debug checklist is N/A since this is a server side process? <a href="https://app.roll20.net/campaigns/details/8316633/adventurers-league-by-mykemyke" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/campaigns/details/8316633/adventurers-league-by-mykemyke</a>
How large is the game MykeMyke? I know that too many characters made it harder for me to make a copy in the past.
I wouldn't know how to tell how big it is... Characters there must be perhaps 25 (I use control tokens). There are tonne of macros, some images etc, a bunch of music, 15 maps etc. Why should that matter - it's a paid feature so if there's a limitation I'm sure it would have been advised right? I literally left the last attempt for 14 hours and counting and still nothing, so if it was simply brute force time then surely that would have been long enough...

I believe that I am running into this issue when trying to copy a game: Note: adding tags to a game that include an apostrophe, such as "Xanathar's", will induce a known bug that will disable the ability to copy your game. Be sure to refrain from using apostrophes when tagging your games! I did not know this when I set up my first ever game (I mean... why would you?). I cannot see how to rename it or remove tags. So how then can I create a copy of this game so that I can actually keep developing my game from a snapshot?

You can change the tags of the game on the My Games page.&nbsp; This the page with the list of your games when you just click on the Games header or the My Games option in the banner that drops down when you hover over the Games header.&nbsp; There are little Xs on the tags to delete them. As far as the game size goes, people with large games have had issues in the past due the server timing out during the copy process causing it to fail.&nbsp; Since we don't have any idea how large our games actually are, and I expect how much data the servers can handle for the copy function probably changes as tech changes, I don't expect we will have real transparency on that aspect of our games for a while.&nbsp; But, that is why people will ask how large/cluttered your game is when something like this comes up. I didn't know about certain characters in the tags breaking that function, so it is certainly something I will keep in mind if that turns out to be the issue.
Thank you Kraynic! That did the trick... obviously it would be too logical to edit tags from inside the edit game menu! The game copied successfully when the tags were removed. [RESOLVED]
